Updates/Fixes June 7 Build 650945
7 June 2015 Current BuildID 650945
- Slowed zombies
- Doubled amount of starting ammo
- Fixed reload - reload with key ”R”
- Extended the length of day - day and nights are longer
- Brightened landscape at nights. Should be able to see much better at nights.
- Forced naming of character
- Fixed jumping conflict with text chat. Press enter/return to global text chat.
- Fixed players on server issues. Previously, the player counts were showing up on the wrong server causing you to join the wrong server with players. If you use a prior build you may see some players on a server, try to join, only to see no one is on the server. This is fixed.
- Adjusted lighting
- Fixed floating raiders again.
- Fixed physics from flying zombies on kills. Should be fixed. Let me know if this persists.
- Adjusted visual settings. The game should look more crisp. Set settings on Fantastic once you start up. The FPS should still be above 60 on the weakest computers.
- Fixed voice chat, but there is still an issue.
Known issues and still trying to fix
- Voice chat works when you tend to spawn near players. I have a network line of distance system that disables network calls when the player is out of view to save bandwith and performance. Because of that, sometimes when players are far it tends to break. I will fix.
- Voice chat needs equalizer settings fixed. Sometimes, you can hear terrible echos.
-Backing out of dedicated servers crashes a Mac on Steam client or locally
-Voice chat works sometimes.
-Crafting button is not working at the moment. I need to test just a bit more.
-Need to adjust player kill physics.
In process of working on a first person view. Seems to work ok so far, a bit jittery. Hope to have this within a week. Hope.
Let me know of more issues. If you have any issues please let me know.
I appreciate everyone's support and patience. Thanks again.

-Fixed floating raiders.
-Fixed where the character gets stuck floating while jumping with weapons in hand. If you see more issues with this, let me know what weapon you had in hand when this happened.
-Fixed jump button - hold space bar to jump
-Readjusted camera centered and further behind player.
-Added more colliders to buildings that you could walk through.
-Disabled trading vehicle.
-Disabled trunk storage.
-Reduced Health on Zombies and Raiders
-Global text chat should be working - Press enter to send a global text. At the moment this does conflict with the control schemes.
-Adjusted camera clipping
-Removed some objects
-Starting inventory has pistol, bandages, food, water, and a save item.
-Fixed create character on Mac. Remember to start Mac builds locally for now.
Open it locally by right clicking the game and going to properties. Click on local files and find the .app file. For now load it from there. The steam client at the moment seems to mess up the GUI and slows it down.
Known issues and still trying to fix
